Cooking Lemon Blossoms

So......this afternoon, I decided to make some lemon blossoms.

I have made these precious little darlings, a number of times....but never have they EVER turned out like the ones I made today.

I'm thinking....... I just may have lost my touch in the kitchen!  Not sure I EVER had a touch in the kitchen....BUT, lately I have made a ton of boo boos when it comes to cooking.

One thing I know is .....I will never win myself a place on a cooking show.   Speaking of cooking shows...I have been watching a lot of them lately.    Shows like:  The Pioneer Woman, Paula Deen, and one cooking show that Jeff Foxworthy is hosting.   

Let me tell you.....The two judges on this (Jeff Foxworthy) show are tuff.  It's not enough for the food to taste good (I mean delicious).....but, everything has to be uniform in size and completely cooked to a (T)   Oh.....and sometimes they deliberately leave out certain steps when it comes to the recipe, and the cooks just have to wing it.  Whew....this is where I would get the stamp of (You Need to go Home)

And for all of these reasons listed above......I'm pretty positive that this is why I was not selected to be on the program along with these amateur cooks.....

Needless to say.....I am serving my cute lemon blossoms to several women tomorrow.....Trista is hosting a 31 party, and I am helping her make some of the food that she is serving.   I don't think that any of them are the same exact size (not the women....the lemon blossoms).....and not all of them have the same amount of icing on them.....BUT, I'm thinking that not one single person will even notice (unless they read my blog tonight)

I'm almost certain that they are delicious!!

                                                                                   ********

Hey....what kind of mood are you in today???   On a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being the BEST of moods......I would say that I'd have to rate myself as a -4.     Yes sirree.....that is a 4 with a minus sign in front of it.   I'm off the scale in my attitude today and this is HIGHLY unusual for me.   Not to worry though....I'm aware of it and I plan to increase that number  tomorrow by about 18 or so points.....    I hope to be somewhere close to a 10 plus, by morning time!!!!

Hey, again......I'm sending my hugs to each one of you!!   Hope you'll send me one back!!

  3. the lemon drops sound amazing, I watched that show today too, very picky, I know they say we eat food first with our eyes but gosh I think taste is the most important thing, who cares what they look like! I really like The Pioneer Woman, now she is real, she doesn't have time to worry about perfect, real life in real time, please be happy, tomorrow is another day,

  4. A great big hug to you Shug, you always brighten my life!!! I love your sunny yellow blog today, and would also like the recipe for the lemon blossoms! We have been watching the Jeff Foxworthy baking show, and it is sooo good! Plus, Jeff is a riot! And also another new one, it is MasterChef and it is on the same night, opposite the Baking show and on Fox. it is good too. We have always watched top Chef, too.
